12.1 Adding and Removing Programs
Before purchasing additional programs for your device, you should
note the name of your device, the version of Windows Mobile
software running on it, and the type of processor. This information will
help you select a program that is compatible with your device.
Programs available for purchase usually include a setup program
(commonly named “setup.exe”) that you must first install on your PC.
You can then use ActiveSync to add programs to your device, or add a
program directly from the Internet.
To add programs:
1. Download the program to your PC (or insert the CD or
disk that contains the program into your PC). You may
see a single *.exe file, a *.zip file, a Setup.exe file, or
several versions of files for different device types and
processors. Be sure to select a program designed for
your device and processor type.
2. Read any installation instructions or documentation
that comes with the program. Many programs provide
special installation instructions.
3. Connect your device and PC.
4. Double-click the *.exe file.
If the executable file is an installation wizard,
follow the instructions on the screen. The wizard
will automatically install the program to your
device.
If an installation wizard does not start, you will
see an error message stating that the program
is valid but that it is designed for a different
type of computer. You will need to copy this
program directly to your device. If you cannot
find any installation instructions for the program,
use ActiveSync to copy the program file to the
Program Files folder on your device.
